Date filmed: Today 18 May 2024 WHO ARE THEY? Formed in 1969, the regiment emerged from the merger of the Royal Horse Guards ("the Blues") and the Royal Dragoons ("the Royals"), units with roots in the mid-17th century. Serving globally, it had roles in Northern Ireland, the Cold War in West Germany, the Falklands War, UN missions in Bosnia, and conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

After the officer checks them at 4:00 p.m., everyone, whether they're on horseback or not, will be done for the day. Two guards on horses watch the entrance to Horse Guards on Whitehall from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. They switch out every hour. WHY THEY SLAP THE HORSE? The purpose of guards slapping their horses when dismounting is to ensure the horse is prepared for the change in weight distribution as the guard descends from the horse. The first one on the neck is essential to tell the horse, "good job." The second slap is to inform the horse that there is an excessive displacement of weight on one side at dismount. HORSES ON HOLIDAY IN THE UK Following the conclusion of the Summer Ceremonial Season, these diligent military horses are respectfully sent to the LEICESTERSHIRE countryside for a well-deserved period of rest and recuperation. One may observe them taking a break on the beaches of Holkham in Norfolk, where they are free to enjoy themselves. During their six-week vacation, the horses are free to roam the verdant fields, inhale the invigorating country air, and revel in the delight of mud baths. At the break of dawn, they are escorted to the square at Hyde Park Barracks, where horse-drawn carriages await to transport them beyond the city limits. Their meticulously trimmed coats are allowed to grow naturally, and their metal shoes are removed. It is a joyous occasion for these majestic creatures! www.army.mod.uk/news-and-events/news/2023/08/military-working-horses-set-free-for-holiday-frolics/ ❤️ Please LIKE 👍 this video to help my channel grow. ❤️ Subscribe & click the bell (🔔) to receive notifications whenever I upload a new video; you'll be the first to know. ❤️Become a Channel Member💂JOIN HERE: / th-cam.com/channels/zs3UW3PEzYv66Yy9nD7D8g.htmljoin Your contribution supports my Channel to create daily videos for you ❤️ Wishing you an amazing day ahead!
Lovely sights from central London up to Horse Guards. A warm welcome to Arnie, who's been on a roll today with tourists, just as her usual self!😅I thought it might be her judging from the markings on her feet, but she attempted to bite the first tourist, i knew it was her😅And the cheeky super-gratified expression on her face, almost like saying "hi hi hiiii, i got another one, yess" was super hilarious😀 Her brother must be very proud of her!🙂 Yes, the man was very upset with the Guards, not the horses, but the Guards, he asked the trooper if he was a "(beep) brave soldier", he had called him a coward. And he added " You backstabbed him, God bless his soul, and threw him....(pause)" and then "How could you do this to him?" or something like that, it's as if he was talking about another person who had been in the Guards and is no longer there. Definitely something personal related to this man's past but not necessarily to this particular trooper. The man was not homeless, judging by his clothes,and he didn't seem drunk. He gave me the feeling he maybe had a son or a very close member of the family in the British Army or the Royal Guards, who had died or suffered something tragic, and in his mind, it was all for nothing, and it was their fault, the rest of the family was neglected. He was speaking as if this "he" was betrayed and he, this man, also felt betrayed. Yes, these things are real, these people and their grievances are real, they are part of life. Have a great weekend!
Why don't you give a bit of info about where you are, etc. I would watch you more if you showed you knew what you were filming by giving the odd comment. A running commentary isn't necessary, but not everyone knows london. Please rake this as constructive criticism

Thank you!
@@Londonchronicles Most welcome☺
That is a good sized horse there. Beautiful.
Did someone feed the horse something? How do they check. Did the tourist want the horse to nip? Sign:
GET BACK DO NOT TOUCH OR FEED HIRSE.
Wonder if he would have actually thumped the horse had he not been in full public view?
Not a good impression for a trooper who looks after horses
